Industrial distribution

Start with the repetitive task your team already knows.

Memric is designed for operations teams that depend on existing Windows software, PDFs, spreadsheets and email. It works through those interfaces from its own computer without asking the team to replace the system underneath them.

This page describes candidate tasks to evaluate. It does not claim that every task or ERP is already supported.

1

A demonstrated starting point

The recorded Memric run begins with product information in a PDF, creates one product record in an environment modeled on DDI, then prepares the related catalog sheet and email.

That makes product setup a concrete place to begin a conversation, while the actual first workflow should come from the work creating the most repeated handling for the team.

Tasks worth evaluating

Candidate 1

Product and catalog maintenance

Move familiar vendor information into product records, sheets and related follow-up.

Candidate 2

Order entry

Evaluate repeated order formats that follow a path the team can explain and review.

Candidate 3

Quote setup

Look for routine setup work where the required fields and exceptions are already known.

Candidate 4

Vendor acknowledgements

Review information that moves between email, documents and the operating system of record.

Three signals that a task belongs in a pilot

  1. 1

    It keeps coming back.

    Someone repeats it every day, every week or whenever the same request arrives.

  2. 2

    The path is familiar.

    The team can describe the normal screens and the cases that require judgment.

  3. 3

    The result is easy to check.

    A person can decide whether the work is right before it is accepted or sent.

What a first conversation establishes

We watch the person who handles the task, name the normal path and exceptions, agree on which accounts Memric may use and decide where it must stop for approval.
